The CAT C2.4 Turbo Under the Hood
The Caterpillar 306E2 is driven by the CAT C2.4 Turbo developing 43 kW (57.7 HP). The power unit is listed against the OEM serial records, and the Tier 3 / China Stage III rating is documented in the file. The Full Hydrostatic layout is standard for the class, and the meter's 1100 hours reading is cross-checked by ECU scan during the audit. The inspection report logs the engine pressures and temperatures at running temperature.
Work Cycle: Dig Depth, Force and Swing
The Caterpillar 306E2 is documented for 4.68 m of dig depth, 7.24 m of reach and 68 kN of bucket force at 34.3 MPa pressure. With the 0.23 m³ bucket fitted and a swing rate of 11.5 rpm, the machine holds a steady production cycle in bulk and trench work. Hydraulic pressures are logged per function in the inspection report, and the values are confirmed against the OEM spec sheet.
Undercarriage and Track System
The running gear uses 450 mm track shoes over 3.65 m of track length, holding ground pressure at 32 kPa. The undercarriage condition is documented in the inspection: Good condition, healthy links and bushings (450 mm shoes). Track adjustment was listed during the audit, and roller and idler seals were checked for leaks. For sites with soft fills or abrasive ground, this track package spreads the 6.2 Tons working weight across a longer footprint.
